Indeed, it was he alone who found himself in the dark confines of a Singapore jail, from where he wrote Rogue Trader. Now updated for the twentieth anniversary of the collapse of Barings, this is his story of a broken system; of a cast of characters blind to anything but profits - whatever the cost. Leeson's tale of boom and bust is an important reminder of the immense power the banking system held and, worryingly, still holds.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Griffin Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57697455243637,"sku":"9780751563399","price":12.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0379\/1365\/7388\/files\/9780751563399.jpg?v=1793097632","url":"https:\/\/www.griffinbooksonline.pro\/products\/9780751563399","provider":"Griffin Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
